Legislation is killing property investment

New legislation introduced in a piecemeal manner is killing investment in the private rental sector. 

Homelessness is increasing and landlords are leaving the market. Complex legislation is more costly to administer, driving up the cost of rents, increasing the cost to tenants.

Rather than helping the tenants of Ireland, Minister Kelly has had a devastating effect on the sector damaging the availablity of accommodation, and causing misery and needless cost to the ordinary tenant, at a time when accommodation is most needed.
